      Hello Holger,              14 Jun 18 11:27 at you wrote to me:               HG> Who needs a 6 TB disk?        HG> Probably your BBS may use such capacity, but not normal humans.              Those of us who like to use modern hardware. You'd be surprised at how        quickly you can fill up disks when you're a file hub.               HG> You don't have to tell me that. Only single core CPU's and small        HG> partitions are accepted at install.              If you're talking OS/2 yes. eCS and ArcaOS, not so much. They can handle        SMP and regular partitions for the most part.               HG> I have been told that the new versions such as Arca-OS and eComOS can        HG> be installed on modern machines.              There's a limit to how modern, however. That's why I moved my BBS to Linux.              Something fun: someone has written a 16-bit OS/2 shell for Linux. :)              Later,       Sean              ...
